ProVest Insurance Group Continues Community Enrichment Program by Collaborating with Local Family Battling Rare Form of Childhood Leukemia
Fort Worth, TX (PRWEB) February 15, 2016 -- The caring team at ProVest Insurance Group announces the latest campaign in their ongoing community involvement program, through which they hope to further their commitment to better the local community. Local two-year-old Liam Smith, who has battled neurofibromatosis since the age of 7 months, was additionally diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia just four months ago. Donations to help this young family cover medical bills, their mortgage and other vital expenses are now being accepted at: https://www.gofundme.com/fightwithliam.
Liam Smith developed as a normal, healthy baby until the age of 4 months, when a dramatic shift occurred. After several months of testing, doctors were finally able to diagnose Neurofibromatosis (NF), a condition which causes tumors to grow both internally and externally at the ends of nerve cells throughout the body. Although there is no cure, doctors closely monitor Liam’s condition to verify tumors aren’t developing in critical areas. Unfortunately, along with NF come other health risks, one of which is a rare form of leukemia called Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukemia (JMML). Since being diagnosed this past October with JMML, Liam’s health has rapidly deteriorated, requiring hospitalization, chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. Liam’s doting mother has been put on unpaid leave from her job, where she carried health insurance for the family, while his devoted father strives to continue working and providing care and a sense of normalcy for Liam’s sisters.
“We hope to rally the whole community around this young family,” said Jay Adkins, owner of ProVest Insurance Group. “After all, neighbors helping neighbors is what it’s all about, and this strong and loving family deserves the support of their community. We’re honored to help in whatever way we can.”
Putting their money where their mouth is, the agency itself has pledged to donate $10 to the Smith family for each and every person recommended to the agency for a quote. Anyone willing to help spread the word about the cause for Liam may recommend someone they know for a new insurance evaluation for their home, car, life, or more, with no purchase necessary.
